peuraideu chikin
Peuraideu chikin literally means FRIED CHICKEN in Southern Korea.
Here, the word chikin refers to "a dish made by coating chopped chicken with flour, and frying or baking it".
Basically in this kind of recipe the chicken used is with skin. After frying the skin gets crispier with firm, dry and brittle surface so the sauce gets coated so well.
My Version
At my home, my family prefers the meat used in this dish without the skin. So I have added my twist here. Instead of vinegar, I have added apple cider vinegar. For sweetness, Brown color sugar is preferred.
